4th Fest 2012 provided yet another evening of fantastic fireworks to celebrate the nations birthday. The all volunteer pyrotechnics team choreographed the evening of fireworks to military, jazz, country and rock musical selections on July 4 and lit up the sky over Penn State's University Park campus for a spectacular 45 minute show.

The Central Pennsylvania 4th Fest culminated with a spectacular fireworks show that lit up the sky over Penn State's University Park campus on July 4. The grand finale of the show released forty-five shells per second in a musically choreographed performance that lasted over two minutes.

This year, the spectacular fireworks show will culminate at a firing rate of over 27 shells per second. The all volunteer pyrotechnics will launch more than 10,000 shells, synchronized to a variety of musical selections, into the Central Pennsylvania sky.
